More about Christina
- 11 years' experience

- LMFT
I'm a therapist with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. I work with clients navigating stress, anxiety, addiction, and career transitions, helping them build resilience and clarity around their next steps.
My approach centers on self-compassion and meaningful communication. I specialize in helping clients work through guilt and shame, cultivate forgiveness, and strengthen their relationships—whether within families, blended family systems, or caregiving roles. I'm also experienced in supporting those managing substance use concerns and the complex emotions that often accompany recovery.
I believe in meeting clients where they are with honesty, respect, and genuine care. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard and supported as you reconnect with your values and move toward the life you want to build. I'm honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
